To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, Mrs. BERYL FENCE, a citizen of the United States,residing at Moorrnans River, in the county of Albemarle and State ofVirginia, have invented a new and novel Rolling-Hoop, of which thefollowing is a specification.

My invention relates to improvements in rolling hoops, the object beingthe provision of a hoop of inexpensive construction which will soundbells as it rolls over the ground and of means for rolling and guidingthe hoop.

To attain this object, my invention consists of a hoop carrying a seriesof bells and of a handle having hooks of novel construction to engagethe hoop and guide it.

Figure 1 is a side elevation of the hoop, and Fig. 2 is a perspectiveview of the novel form of handle used with my hoop.

The hoop A, is provided upon its inner face with a series of rigidlyafiiXed bells or chimes B, in connection with which I use the. handle 0,having a flat outer end D, to rest flush against the fiat outer face ofthe hoop, said flat face being provided with the pair of oppositelydisposed hooks E, which are arranged out of line and grip the rim of thehoop, keeping the hoop straight and preventing it from slipping.

The handle with flat end to rest against the outer face of the hoop andthe hooks out of line, and oppositely disposed to grip the hoop and holdthe fiat end of the handle to guide and hold the hoop constitutes thegist of my invention, and the new and most important features.

I claim:

The hoop stick herein described, consisting of a handlehaving the fiatface adapted to rest upon the flat face of the hoop and the hooksprojecting from said flat face to grip the hoop, and arranged out ofline and curved in opposite directions.
